Differential rates of drug resistance in subgroups of JME. The right (white/green/yellow) segment of pie charts represent those seizure-free for over one year, and the left (grey/red/blue) segment represent those who are drug-resistant. Absence seizures moderate the effect of seizures triggered by stress precipitants in females, whereas photosensitivity (here defined as any response to photic stimulation during an EEG and/or reporting light/visual patterns as a trigger) is a protective factor for seizure control in all female strata. The area of the circle is proportional to the size of the subgroup in our cohort. **p < 0.01 and *p < 0.05 in chi-squared tests.
